"Gone" is a soft rock and indie rock ballad which focuses on the electric guitar sound.

According to the producers, "Gone" is more mellow than "On the Ground," and the track featured a "stripped-back" sound that is built around strummed guitar chords.

Lyrically, "Gone" is a heartfelt breakup song that revolves around someone that is still in love with their ex that has moved on. According to Rosé, she was able to be herself while recording the song.

The singer added that "Gone" was recorded two years ago. She helped write the lyrics for the song, as well as the lyrics for "On the Ground." This marks Rosé's first time officially working as a songwriter.
